A water hose is a cylinder, and since the volume of a cylinder is pi*r^2*height, we can calculate the volume of the water hose by finding the radius and height. A 3 inch hose has a radius of 1.5 inches, and 50 ft is equal to 600 inches, so 1.5^2 is 2.25, and 2.25*600 is 1,350. Finally we multiply by Pi to get approximately 4,239 cubic inches. Since 1 cubic inch is equal to 0.00432 gallons, there are 18.3506 gallons.
